“No! It’s not true!” I was 6 . I couldn’t believe her. “Tippy, come here! Come on, boy!” I called and called for him. I waited. He didn’t come. Feeling 7 , I wandered into the living room. I didn’t cry that night. I still couldn’t believe that he was 8 .

A
Saturday, March 24th
We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok. This is our first trip to Thailand（泰国）. All the different smells make us want to try the food. We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight. The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean. We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.
Tuesday, March 27th
Bangkok is wonderful and surprising. The places are interesting. We visited the famous market which was on water, and saw a lot of fruits and vegetables. Everything is so colorful, and we have taken hundreds of photos already! Later today we will leave for Chiang Mai. We will take the train north, stay in Chiang Mai for two days, and then catch a bus to Chiang Rai.
Friday, March 30th
Our trip to Chiang Rai was long and boring. We visited a small village in the mountains. The village people here love the quiet life—no computers or phones. They are the kindest people I have ever met. They always smile and say “hello”. Kathy and I can only speak a few words of Thai, so smiling is the best way to show our kindness. I feel good here and hope to be able to come back next year.

Most of the energy we use now is made from “non-renewable” sources. The good news is we have plenty of alternatives– the wind, sun and water can provide “renewable (可再生的) energy” which will never run out and does not give off carbon dioxide and therefore is good for the environment.
So, what would a world powered by nature look like? Let’s think about how your day might change.
As you are woken up, the solar panels (太阳能电池板) on your roof would heat the water you bathe with. In the kitchen your mum would make breakfast with a kettle that could tell you just how much energy you are using, and where it’s coming from – maybe from solar panels too. As you and your family leave the house, a “Smart” energy meter (仪表) would be able to tell you the amount of energy your family has used so far.
You would get in your family’s electric car, which would not give off any bad smoke. On your way to school, you would notice all the houses you pass have solar panels on their roofs and maybe a small wind turbine (风力涡轮机) if they were built on a hill, and some have water tanks collecting rain water to be reused. There would be no petrol stations, but you might see many other stations instead, where you could recharge (再充电) your car.
Your school would also look different. Like your house, the roof would probably be covered with solar panels. Inside, the school would be heated by a biomass boiler (生物质锅炉), which burns recycled wood chips. A renewable cooling system in the school means that in the summer it will never get too warm!
To make this renewable future possible, we need to think carefully about where our energy comes from and how we use it.
35. What wouldn’t you see on the way to school according to the text?
A. Petrol stations. B. Solar panels on the roofs.
C. Small wind turbines. D. Water tanks collecting rain water.
36. Which of the following best describes the world mentioned in the text?
A. Healthy and safe.
B. Convenient but unpractical.
C. Energy-saving but too complex.
D. Intelligent and free from pollution.
37. Which might be the best title for the text?
A. Life in the future B. A world powered by nature
C. The ways to preserve energ y D. Renewable energy in the future
C
If you have ever wondered what Noah’ s Ark (诺亚方舟), the enormous boat that saved Noah, his family and two examples of every animal species on the earth, may have looked like, you are in luck. That’s because a Dutchman (荷兰人) has created a life-size replica (复制品).
Johan Huibers says he was inspired to build a boat after he dreamt that his country was completely flooded! The carpenter began by creating a smaller version of what he likes to call Johan’s Ark in 2004. Not surprisingly, it was an instant hit with tourists. Encouraged by the success, he used the funds generated from ticket sales, and in 2009 recruited (雇用) his two children and some friends, to build a version of the same size as the one described in the Bible.
What’s even more amazing is the detail that lies inside. Just like the real deal, Johan has built storage spaces at the bottom of the ship where food can be kept for long periods of time. A curved (弯曲的) upper deck (甲板) is not only designed to accumulate rainwater, but also, serve as an “exercise” track for animals like horses and big cats!
As for the animals? While the area inside is big enough to allow two real elephants to dance, Johan has restrained (抑制) that impulse! Instead, he has populated it with plastic substitutes of the animal and also giraffes, zebras and even buffalos (野牛)—all life-size of course! But smaller species like chickens, sheep and rabbits got luckier. They are all alive and seem to be enjoying their life inside the Ark’s “petting” zoo.
38. What pushed Johan to start making a life-size replica of Noah’s Ark?
A. An interest in the Bible. B. Fear of the end of the world.
C. The success of Johan’s first boat.
D. A terrible experience in the Netherlands.
39. A curved upper deck is specially designed to _____.
A. store plenty of food B. hold more large animals
C. meet the need of animals D. prevent rainwater from getting in
40. The underlined part “that impulse” in the last paragraph refers to “_____”.
A. taking small animals onboard B. bringing in large live animals
C. using plastic substitutes of animals
D. collecting all the animals in the world
41. In which section of a newspaper can you most probably read the text?
A. Funny tales. B. The world of animals.
C. Science and technology. D. Fantastic and amazing news.
D
Recently, a professor of philosophy (哲学) in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day­to­day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money，they can see what they really value in life.
He says our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does，it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling，but if it is not carried out in the money world，there is something less real about it.
Since money is so important to us，we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires (百万富翁) in researching his book.
Question：What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich，because you are a selfmade man?
Answer：The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I do not know much. All I am is rich.
People just have an idea of making more and more money，but what is it for？How much do I need for any given purposes in my life？In his book，the professor uncovered an important need in modern society：To bring back the idea that money is a tool rather than the purpose. Money plays an important role in the material world，but expecting money to bring happiness may be missing the meaning of life.
42. According to Paragraph 1, _______________．
A. people haven’t realized the hidden meaning of dealing with money in their life
B. people need to practise using money in their life
C. people have understood money values a lot in their life.
D. people can see money is not important in their life.
43. The author (作者) seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money________.
A. is a good way to test your friendship B. will do harm to your friendship
C. will strengthen your friendship D. is a good way to break off your friendship
44. What can we learn about the millionaire from his answer in the interview?
A. He does not feel that he is well educated.
B. He does not think that he is a very important person.
C. He doesn't think that being rich is worth so much attention.
D. He does not consider himself to be very successful.
45. Which of the following might the author disagree with?
A. Money is important in modern society.
B. The meaning of life does not completely lie in money.
C. Wealth will surely bring the owner happiness.
D. Happiness is not necessarily the result of wealth.
